Realistically, I don’t see major changes coming. Of course we’re trying to get better, and any deal that was available that could help us, you obviously do that. But we’re not just trying to make any deal. We’re not selling the team off or anything like that. We’re trying to win with what we have right now. That’s got to be our first objective.

Ainge went on to say that many of the issues the team is currently facing are nothing new, and a lot of the same stuff we've seen from the C's in recent years:

We know that this team is talented, but even with that, there have been a lot of disappointing games this year. And that’s been a pattern over the last three years. That’s what I know. And our team has responded well in the playoffs. But we’ve played down to the level of our competition sometimes, and that’s been frustrating.
